[flexcoders] e4x list of unique child elements.
I may be becoming too ambitious here for e4x, nevertheless! I have an xml structure var inputXML:XML = books book name=da vinci code author=dan brown price=12.22 quantity=2 location city=san francisco state=california/ /book book name=angels and daemons author=dan brown price=10.20 quantity=4 location city=miami state=florida/ /book book name=digital fortress author=dan brown price=12.22 quantity=5 location city=los angeles state=california/ /book /books; I want two things from above xml document: 1. list of unique state (attribute) names from above xml. ie., list containing california,florida. I can use for each for this but is there a direct e4x expression to do this. Is there a better way? 2. merge the book elements from same state into a single element adding the prices/quantities but ignoring the name, author, city attributes and return them as xml-list. ie., book price=24.44 quantity=7 location state=california/ /book book price=10.20 quantity=4 location state=florida/ book The only way I can think of doing this is to create a new xml structure containing the common attributes by looping through the original xml. Again, is there a better way? thanks in advance for the help. -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com Yahoo!
